Happy New Year! It's 2022 and what better way to start the new year than reviewing a video game adaptation of a childhood arcade game we grew up with - The House of the Dead. Of course, we are using the term "video game adaptation" very loosely because this move barely uses any source material from the game.
The House of the Dead arcade games can be found in almost any arcade and have even been made on console to bring the point-and-shoot zombie madness into our homes. Sega did us all a favor with these games, but unfortunately, the movie couldn't deliver. In House of the Dead, trouble befalls a few rave-seeking college coeds who head over to an island that is inhabited by zombies.
Directed by Uwe Boll, who is widely known for his poorly directed video game adaptations, House of the Dead falls right in line with his filmography. It's one of the worst movies, we've ever seen, but is it the worst movie we've reviewed?
